Subject: merge removed content back into current content
Date: Fri, 24 Sep 2010 22:06:10 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <i7jp1a$kc0$1@dough.gmane.org> (raw)
How do I tell git to merge a single program from an old commit into the
current version of that program in the HEAD commit? In this scenario, I
want to get back some removed code but still keep the new code.
e.g.
Commit-1 = initial commit containing Program-A, and other programs
Commit-2 = add Changeset-1 to Program-A , and make changes to other programs
Commit-3 = remove Changeset-1 from Program-A, then add Changeset-2 to
Program-A, and make changes to other programs
*desired* Commit-4 = only merge Program-A from Commit-2 into Program-A of
Commit-3, and don't change any other programs
(in other words, get my old changes from Commit-2 back, but don't loose the
new changes from Commit-3)
v/r,
Neal
